Topic: Unlocking the Power of Digital Text: An Introduction to OCR
This presentation explores Optical Character Recognition (OCR), a technology that transforms images of text into machine-readable data. We'll delve into the mechanics of OCR, including text detection, extraction, and layout analysis, exploring real-world applications.
Furthermore, we'll discuss the latest advancements in OCR powered by AI, including the integration of Large Language Models (LLMs) for enhanced accuracy and document understanding. Finally, we'll showcase practical examples using popular OCR engines and cutting-edge tools like LlamaIndex and LlamaParse for document indexing and information extraction.
Join us to discover how OCR is revolutionizing data extraction and unlocking the potential of digital text.
